War Stories is a military history program on the Fox News Channel, broadcast Saturday evenings at 9pm Eastern/6pm Pacific. All World War II-era episodes and the current season will soon be available for purchase - the expected DVD release date is December 13, 2007.
Hosted by Oliver North, the program covers a number of different stories relating to war and national defense, featuring individuals who were directly involved with the topic covered in the episode.
Each episode will focus on one of three areas:
- A particular noteworthy individual, such as George Patton or Douglas MacArthur
- A particular battle, such as the Battle of Hamburger Hill
- A segment devoted to a specific topic, such as the use of animals in the military or the Huey
The episodes are often based on current events; the episode which aired August 6, 2006 featured the history of Fidel Castro's rise to power (in light of Castro's temporary relinquishment of power) while the prior week's episode centered on Hezbollah.
North will end the episode with the tagline, "his/hers/theirs is a war story, that deserves to be told".
